I mean apt can't mount a CD, NFS volume or disk partition. To use those media with apt's dselect method, the user has to mount them before starting dselect, and umount them after the install. It would be nice if the user could enter "my CD is in /dev/hdc" and then the apt method do the mounting/umounting thing automatically.
